I think they're in the last chance saloon now, the move to BPW has the looks of the last attempt to save the club. God knows why RJ is spending his money on it, it's not like he's a lifelong fan, but if the fans don't show up it wont matter for long.
Players come and go, the club remains and thrives without him.
I'll second that.

Simply because he is a mug, surprised he hasn't got it tattooed on his forehead!! :lol:

Was looking on ploppynet yesterday and they've picked up on our criticisms of Jake.

They seem to think what some have stated is only because he's left the club, correct me if I'm wrong but we've seen that he only has one foot for most of the season!! I guess its too much for their feeble little brains to contemplate.

Won't it? If he's prepared to spend what must be around £50-100k on getting the ground up to standard and getting a squad together then I'm sure he'll be prepared to subsidise their losses if their crowds aren't good enough.

i saw some comment from a clearly didn't have a clue poppy fan than as we "allowed" Jake to leave and that we had signed Dunkley we weren't interested in youth and just splashing the cash.
Clearly the word sustainable hasn't reached K*ttering yet and with their history it amazes me, also who played for the KTFC youth set up last season, oh yeah no one.

They just prefer to brush their problems under the carpet, and hope they'll go away. While hoping their fairy godmother will keep bailing them out!

How do they get away with owing all these local people money yet carry on as though nothing as happened ? How are they allowed to circumvent league rules last season and this season ?

I fail to understand why we did not offer Jake a contract, I admit we cannot offer all our players a contract, however we offered Alfie, Joe and Sam a contract the only other player worthy of a contract because of his age was Jake. Please tell me why we have allowed Jake to slip through the net.

Contracts in football aren't worth the paper they are written on, if he was that intent on moving then it wouldn't have mattered. We only want players that want to be here, contracts can't ensure that.

Yeah but what do expect from poppytalk, I don't think I've ever seen a rational post on that forum :lol:
